Catholic social teaching informs us that good governments and good economic systems <\/span>find ways of fostering the three principles<\/strong>.\u00a0The Catholic Church also points out that <\/span>systems that do not value these three principles <\/span>work towards the detriment of mankind. Vincent Cardinal Nichols, then Archbishop of Westminster, explained it well when he said that it \u201cis not an economic or political programme, but it offers a powerful way of thinking about what the common good requires, and how structures in society can promote or undermine human well-being and the requirements of justice.\u201d <\/span>(Just Money: How Catholic Social Teaching Can Redeem Capitalism, Foreward)<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_blurb][et_pb_toggle title=”Read more” icon_color=”#ffffff” open_icon_color=”#ffffff” module_class=”hover-btn-border read-more bullets-module” _builder_version=”4.19.1″ title_text_color=”#ffffff” title_font=”Open Sans|600||on|||||” title_font_size=”14px” title_line_height=”1.7em” body_font=”||||||||” background_color=”#054368″ custom_margin=”|||40px” custom_margin_tablet=”|||0px” custom_margin_phone=”” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|tablet” custom_padding=”|0px||” border_width_all=”0px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Because of this, the Catholic Church has done a lot of thinking and reflection on these macro issues facing modern societies:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Pope Benedict XVI confirmed this when he said i<\/span>t \u201cis an expression of the prophetic task of the supreme pontiffs to give apostolic guidance to the church of Christ and to discern the new demands of evangelization.\u201d\u00a0<\/sup>(Caritas in Veritate, 12)<\/em><\/a>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Catholic social teaching is so important and comprehensive that Pope Saint John Paul II called on lay Catholic leaders to form their consciences on the tenets of the Church\u2019s social doctrine. (Ecclesia in America, 67)<\/a><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n Pope Pius XI believed the principles of Catholic social teaching to be universal. He stated that even those that do not share the faith, may share in its social doctrine.\u00a0Catholic social teaching\u00a0 has \u201cgradually and imperceptibly worked its way into the minds of those outside Catholic unity who do not recognize the authority of the Church. Catholic principles on the social question have as a result, passed little by little into the patrimony of all human society.\u201d (Quadragesimo Anno, 21)<\/a><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n Yet, most Catholics are largely unaware of Catholic social doctrine.
